Mel grinned at Kelly. “See — isn’t he great?!” she gushed excitedly. “I know you don’t like the idea of dating anyone who’s not your destined, but didn’t I _tell_ you Benji is just adorable? You two would be just the perfect couple! Don’t you just want to give him a _chance, _now that you’ve met him, Kells?”

It doesn’t end with the line, because it got away from me and I couldn’t make it work. It was heavily inspired by it though so I’m posting it under the prompt anyway.
Anyway, this isn’t my best work, but better to post something than nothing! Here it is

Nancy grinned sharply as she looked at the crowd in front of her.
They were joking and messing around with their neighbors. Once upon a ...
No one had ever managed such a feat before.
